Power Window Switch Dilema
 

Ok, I need some help! I had a rattle in the drivers door so I decided to tear the door apart. I have done this before with no problems,but this time something went wrong. As I took the five wires off each power window switch I labeled them in a clock wise fashion. I fixed the rattle, installed new vapor barrier and reassembled. I hooked the switches up, turned the key to test and nothing. Nothing except faint smoke from the window switch wires. I turned the key off, rechecked the wire orientation, turned the key and nothing. Except again smoke. What could I have done wrong?

Any insight would be great!

Re-check the connections, but you probably fried the switch.

Bentley 570-2 says for an '84-89:

Left Window driver door switch:
1. blue
2. blue/black
3. single red/blue
4. brown
5. double red/blue

Right window driver door switch:
1. red/white
2. red/black
3. single red/blue
4. brown
5. double red/blue

Thanks, I will double check the connections.

Switch.
